| Abstract Title: |
Using numerical Laplace transforms and a lossy transmission line model to replicate the measured transient response of coaxial cables |
| Abstract: |
We have measured and modeled the transient response of a length of coaxial transmission line to both voltage steps and narrow rectangular pulses. We first considered the case of an ideal (lossless) transmission line and showed that, while the calculated response captured many of the features found in the experimental measurements, there were also clear differences. We attempted to account for these non-ideal features by incorporating both conductive and dielectric losses into our transmission line model and including the non-ideal characteristics of the signal generator and oscilloscope used in the experimental setup. This work was initiated in our advanced undergraduate lab course and then further explored as an experimental directed-studies course. |
